Bolder Options is a 1:1 Youth Mentoring program in Minnesota that pairs youth ages 10-14 with a volunteer mentor in the community for a year. Throughout the year participants focus on holisitic personal development through weekly activities hosted by our staff. These actvities include hiking, biking, cooking classes, sporting events, art classes and everything in between. Every youth in the program receives a brand new pair of running shoes, a bicycle, and a helmet. We hope to provide experiences to the the youth that they might not otherwise have all while helping to build their confidence and gain a skill set that will help them to be sucessful in whatever they do.
After completion of our one year program, the youth can participate in a program called "I Believe, I Achieve" which focuses on different career paths. The youth learn how to create a résumé, learn how to interview, and are matched with a job coach. We also offer Adveneture Learning: an opportunity for youth to explore the outdoors and all it has to offer.
